Thanks for the recommendations...

I did a quick Internet search and found the following (shoulda 
done this first!):

Storing leather requires some special consideration to help keep 
it in good shape and well protected. You should store your leather 
in an airy, cool, dry area that is not too hot or cold and 
certainly not damp. The storage should be darkened to avoid direct 
sunlight as well since this will dry and fade the leather. Always 
use padded hangers to help preserve the shape of your item and if 
you choose to cover the item use a breathable cloth like a cotton 
sheet. Do not enclose it for long periods of time in plastic since 
it will dry the item out.

Looks like my choices are bedroom or living room under a bedsheet. 
Wonder what the wife will say...
